Revelation 1 The Beginning Of The End

Revelation 1 serves as an introduction to the book, revealing

that God showed John, while he was on the island of Patmos, the

coming return of the Lord Jesus Christ. This was a message of hope

to believers who were being persecuted by the Roman Empire.

Even though the theme is “the beginning of the end,” for true

believers in Christ it signifies the end of suffering and the beginning

of eternal happiness. The return of Christ will be so glorious that it

will completely outweigh all our present trials and sufferings.
